CTYPECAST Cast FreeMat Structure to C Structure
Section: FreeMat External Interface
Usage
Thectypecast function is a convenience function for ensuring that
a FreeMat structure fits the definition of a C struct (as defined
via ctypedefine. It does so by encoding the structure
to a byte array using ctypefreeze and then recovering it using
the ctypethaw function. The usage is simply
s = ctypecast(s,typename)
where s is the structure and typename is the name of the
C structure that describes the desired layout and types for elements
of s. This function is equivalent to calling ctypefreeze
and ctypethaw in succession on a FreeMat structure.
